New Rush Touring Book to be Published in the Fall

A new book focusing on Rush and their years on the road is set to be published in October.

Rush: Wandering the Face of the Earth: The Official Touring History, is written by Skip Daly and Eric Hansen, with a foreword by Primus leader Les Claypool and an afterword by former Police drummer Stewart Copeland.

The book examines the band from its beginnings to the first time Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee, and Neil Peart performed together in front of 11,000 people in 1974.

“Wandering the Face of the Earth covers Rush’s storied touring career, from their humble beginnings as a Toronto-area bar band playing middle school gymnasiums to their rise as one of the world’s most sought-after live acts, selling out massive arenas around the globe,” reads a release. “This book includes every setlist, every opening act, and every noteworthy moment meticulously researched and vetted by the band themselves. Along with spectacular, never-before-seen imagery, this is THE must-have tour compendium for Rush fans.”
